Agrifirst Ginegar Onion/Garlic Mulch is purpose-engineered for India's massive allium crop segment — onion, garlic, shallot, and leek cultivation. Unlike standard row-crop mulch films, this specialized variant features high-density pre-punched holes at narrow spacing (typically 10cm × 15cm or 15cm × 15cm) to accommodate the close planting pattern that allium crops require for maximum yield.
Key Benefits
- Optimized Hole Pattern — Dense spacing matches onion/garlic planting requirements for maximum bulbs per square meter
- Complete Weed Elimination — Blocks all weed growth between closely-spaced plants — critical since manual weeding in allium beds is extremely labor-intensive
- 60% Labor Savings — Eliminates 3–4 rounds of manual weeding during the crop cycle
- Moisture Conservation — Reduces irrigation frequency by 30–40%, critical for water-stressed growing regions
- Uniform Bulb Size — Consistent moisture and temperature promote even bulb development across the entire bed
- Higher Marketable Yield — 20–30% yield increase through better weed control, moisture management, and reduced disease
